Idea

Neat was founded by former GB swimmers, Lee & Charlie with a commitment to support every lifestyle. Their goal was to create a protein powder that tasted great and used simple and nutritious ingredients, the complete opposite to traditional 'big tubs'. Since launching with a positive response from customers and the media, Neat evolved its offering to a personalised subscription service.

Neat has done awesome things:

• Rated 4.6* on Trustpilot
• Won Men’s Health Reader’s Choice Best New Product, 2017
• Created over 1000 pieces of unique content viewed by over 320,000 people
• Built key relationships with lululemon, Soho House, Net-a-Porter and Mr Porter
• An engaged social media following of 33,000

Neat launched with both whey and vegan protein blends. But as we move forward we have committed to focusing solely on the development of plant-based blends. The plant-based supplement market is due to be worth $7.38 billion by 2026. We want to capitalise on that awesome potential by continuing to make delicious and purposeful plant-based products. Our ingredients will be responsibly sourced and empower under-served communities of growers.

Your investment will push forward new product development and open up new distribution channels. It will also help us aim to gain B-Corp status, joining many global brands in pledging our desire to do the best by our community, customers, workers and environment.
